Oh well .....

I asked this is the computing section , my first one ( and probably my last there , not one bite LOL ) in that section ,,, any way .

On Monday night I noticed I could not open the large versions on any photos , on any thread in the forums section here on IIS , it just sits there 'Downloading' for ever , well I tried one hour and zero , zilch large version ?? .

If I go into my user CP and open my photos its all ok , the large ones down load without a problem , its only in the Forums section as the 'EQ reviews' and 'Projects & Articles' are OK as well .
Anyone else experiencing this , its still not doing it as of 3 miniutes ago .

I have not changed any settings on my computer ,,, well I think I have not .

Help , and thanks . I will listen to all advise as I am missing looking at all the excellent shots all the talented APers are posting , not to mention every other section as well . .

Brian.

Works ok for me Brian

Mine does the same since I upgraded Internet Explorer, Brian.
I can enlarge the picture by clicking to open it once, then closing the box with the x in the top right corner, and then re-clicking to open it again.
Its easier to use Google Chrome or some other program!

Oh, if I had a dollar for every time that question has been asked.

Glad you got it sorted. I use Firefox and Chrome, BTW.

IE is best known as a virus/trojan installer.

"Friends don't let friends use IE."

IIS pics don't open with IE, Firefox or Chrome on my laptop. They open fine on my desktop, any browser. Win7 v. XP, who knows...

I haven't been able to see pics for the last few days either.
I thought it may of been just my connection but looks like it's not.

For a number of months a while ago I could not open pix in the forum on my work PC ( W7 SP1 ) but for some unknown reason it is no longer a problem. No idea why ....

[OzStarGazer]

I am really not sure, but maybe it has to do with Java or with your browser's settings to display images/security settings? Anyway, they open fine on my laptop. But of course I am not using IE.

You mean people still use IE?
I sometimes get reminders to update my IE6.... I won't do it.
